[Chorus: Smino]

I'd like to exercise my right to remain silent, please

I plead the .45th, 'cause this shit is beyond me

All their words don't mean anything

City of haters, city of demons (Yeah, yeah, ooh, ooh, ooh)

[Verse 1: Smino]

I wanna love all of y'all, but I don't think it's enough Tylenol (Uh)

I'm thinkin' 'bout callin' off, I'm tired as fuck and I'm noddin' off

Surrounded by narcissists, my noose is movin' through the contusions

They see my hue and they wanna do me, just like Huey P. Newton (Ayy, ayy, ayy)

I got a laundry list of lessons in Chicago lost

Runnin' from pagans, runnin' with Reagan, now they with Donald Trump

I don't take nothin' too personal, play 50 Cent, I'ma Kurtis Blow

Gold grill and a greasy 'fro, no peace to the PD, woah

[Chorus: Smino]

I'd like to exercise my right to remain silent, please (Yes)

I plead the .45th, 'cause this shit is beyond me

All their words don't mean anything (No)

City of haters, city of demons (Ooh-ooh, ooh)

[Verse 2: Saba]

I said I love all of y'all, but that's to get the deposits off

I was a child meanwhile my grandfather playin' Ahmad Jamal

My niggas incarcerated, cops still livin' above the law

The city so cold, I had to leave out quick and let the car defrost

Westside Chicago, dodgin' the potholes, know I can die tomorrow

'Cause that's a reality, this shit ain't all peachy or tangerine

They coverin' it up with catastrophe

A couple of 'em killed by the badge at ease

Shit is a war, never had no peace

They pullin' me over, harrasin' me

So, I'd like to see all of them bastards bleed

[Chorus: Smino]

I'd like to exercise my right to remain silent, please

I plead the .45th, 'cause this shit is beyond me

All their words don't mean anything

City of haters, city of demons (Ooh, ooh)

[Outro: Smino]

All their (All their, all their, all their, all their)
